There seems to be a vast majority of us all a little underwhelmed by the app. All we can hope for is updates, and big ones.
In the mean time, I made my analogy in the form of a video. Enjoy

it's funny because someone is trying to argue with me on IG that it's my fault the app crashes when you press record...like there aren't thousands of others all experiencing the same thing :LOL:

There are so many bizarre features (and lack of features).
Honestly, I think Ford wanted free testing and feedback from the B6G crowd so they just released a bare-bones shell of an app for us to help develop/fix 😜

Development is going to be SO slow due to it only being a Bronco app… makes it relatively useless for a couple years in comparison to OnX, Gaia etc

onX. Doesn’t even list the roads. Which I guess in a way is good, there are ton of secret off roads throughout the state, yet these apps show like 3 main rides

Automakers just stubbornly insist on developing software applications and support interfaces that are tremendously short of what already exists in the marketplace. Ford probably could have licensed an existing application (such as OnXOffroad) and created a Ford Bronco-branded version of it, with all of their bronco-specific visual overlays, etc....BUT NOOOOO they had to go and create something from scratch, spending a fortune in the process.

There are curated trails by house so I was excited to try it out. It was total let down due intermittent connection and unable to record video due my truck not being compatible, which was weird
because I have badlands with the Lux package. 🤷‍♂️

I think the difference between onX and the Bronco Trail app is that the Bronco Trail app will have UGC trails from everyone using the app and uploading waypoints, photos and new routes. Does onX do that too or are their routes curated in-house?

As long as they patch the (many) bugs, I see content growing faster than an in-house content production app. Of course, people have to use it and launching a barely usable app doesn't help for reducing churn.
